Month: October 2025

Welcome to some last full day sadness.

We were up and out at 9 heading for our Coffee and pastry when we saw one of our friends.

After eating we wandered to the beach and were glad to see our favourite beds were free.

I have to admit to feeling quite sad about the impending end of this holiday.

Got some sun for a change and then once again we shared a club sandwich.

I spent a while reading and wondering how I could avoid a return to work. With that in mind I tried to buy some Euromillions tickets but couldn’t as I was overseas so I messaged Emily back home and had her do it. I’ll let you guess if we won or not.

We went in the pool for a while. I had a
White Russian who was quite OK with it and Louise had a margarita.

More sun back at the beach. We left at at 5.15 taking lots of pictures laced with melancholy.

We were in building 8 which we felt was ideally placed for pretty much everything.

After one last get ready and relax we were out at 7.30. We went to reception to checkout followed by a drink in the bar.

Then we walked over to the Theatre for another watch of the Beatles show.

Choosing Asia for our last meal was an easy decision. It was our clear favourite.

The waiter, having discovered it was our last night brought out a special dessert with a nice message followed by all the staff which was a lovely touch.

Much lovelier than my photos.

We headed back to the bar for one last Nightcap and we were off to bed around 11.

Till the next time……

We slept till 7.30 and left the room around 9. We strolled to the Coffee shop for our semi regular latte and a pastry.

We got to the beach around 10 for lots more of nothing.

We didn’t bother with lunch, saving ourselves for a good dinner later.

Recognising I live in a glass house in terms of hair we did enjoy the fact that Dog the Bounty Hunter was on the next set of beds.

We spiced things up with a visit to the pool where we had a couple of drinks before yet more beach until 5.30.

At the pool I managed to snap one of the pool/fun staff who we thought was a dead ringer for Zac Efron.

With our remaining days being few I started to just capture random stuff so we would remember how lovely this place was.

Another enjoyable couple of hours in the room enjoying the dressing gown, after sun, drink and complimentary nuts (not a euphemism). Once we were showered and ready we made our way to the Asian restaurant.

We spent the 20 min wait for a table in the sports bar.

Two starters each tonight. I did say we were saving ourselves.

Sweet and sour and Pad Thai. I couldn’t finish mine (the Pad Thai) as the double starter filled me up.

We wandered to the theatre at 9.30 for tonight’s show.

Once again the quality was good.

A nightcap at the main bar before heading back to our room around 10.30. We watched a bit of a film, The Fugitive, before welcome sleep.

Till the next time…..

No breakfast required this morning, just a lie in and we didn’t get to the beach until 10.

Yep we just lazed again. I was overly fascinated with these chaps for longer than a grown up should be.

Once the hour was civilized enough we had a Mojito and Margarita alongside our customary club sandwich.

We went into the pool for a bit as variety is everything.

More lazing.

We saw a wedding around 5pm so we watched that from afar. It looked lovely but I didn’t envy those wearing suits or huge wedding dress.

Room at 6. Readied and out for 8.

This will sound odd but this was one of my favourite bits of the day every day.

We headed to the Theatre for tonight’s Latin dance show.

I do think they are missing a large revenue stream by not selling those male dancer’s outfits in the gift shop.

To keep the cultural theme going we headed to the Mexican restaurant for tea. It was very quiet.

Tortilla soup and lamb thing for me.

Those are Mango margs. A new one for us. I seem to have failed to note a lot of what was served this evening.

We headed to the lobby bar for one bumping into an old friend on the way.

After such a demanding day we of course needed an early night.

Till the next time……
